I always wanna know which way the cheering is going across the country. So my annual Super Bowl pool asks:

Question:
Who will you be rooting for on Super Bowl Sunday?

Choices:
C'mon, how you could NOT pull for New Orleans after all the city's been through?
I'm with Archie -- Peyton all the way.
Just hoping to see an exciting game.
It's the only show where I look forward to the ads.
Won't be anywhere near a TV that day (and if I am, it will be showing a chick flick)..

The Vikings gave their playoff game to the Saints, with six fumbles (three lost), two interceptions, and critical penalties. In spite of all that, the Saints didn't beat them until overtime.

The Colts aren't going to be that generous.

Yes, it would be nice if New Orleans won, but I just don't see it happening.

Goal: Focus. Eliminate mindless nibbles.

If it's a good game, I'll watch the whole thing. For some reason, I've always been a fan of Peyton Manning and his brother, so I'm kind of leaning toward the colts.

If it's boring, I'll switch to the puppy bowl (which will get recorded anyway). The best part is that if Animal Planet follows suit from 2 years ago, there should be an equivalent to the puppy bowl when the olympics start in February. I usually watch & record those, too.


Life is like a roller coaster, with lots of ups and downs, but the curves, spirals, loops and corkscrews are what make life interesting.

Don't watch the Super Bowl but we do watch the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet at that same time Wink.

It is really cute. There is a room set up like a statium and it is filled with puppies playing with toys and each other and there is an announcer giving a play by play of what is happening. The half-time show is kittens.

I think this is the 4th or 5th year they have done it. I first happened upon it last year.

I am firmly in the Colts camp. I was hoping to be at the game, but we didn't get picked in the lottery this time. I will be wearing blue all next week and especially Sunday.

Indy is closer than New Orleans, but actually, I don't care.

And I'll wait for the commercials on Today the next morning. I'll be curled up with a book.
